AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/03 Report--

With the development of the automobile era, panoramic skylight has gradually become the standard configuration of more and more models, especially as a high-end model, but it is unexpected that the panoramic skylight breaks so suddenly. A few days ago, it was rumored on the Internet that the panoramic skylight suddenly burst as soon as the owner closed the door.

Judging from the video, this is a Mercedes-Benz E-Class car that sells for four or five hundred thousand yuan and stops in the parking space. when the owner takes his personal belongings from the co-driver and is ready to leave and close the door, he hears a "bang". The front of the skylight suddenly burst, causing the roof to wear through.

Due to the sudden incident, the car owner immediately looked at the roof in amazement, some at a loss, but then recorded the situation with his mobile phone. And posted on the Internet, did not expect to usher in a hot discussion, and even encountered a lot of netizens ridicule.

In fact, the sudden bursting of the skylight is not unique to Mercedes-Benz, but also to owners of other models. And from the skylight self-explosion that has occurred, there is no warning in advance is something in common, most of the situation will occur in the process of vehicle driving, there are many factors in the analysis of self-explosion.

However, in the view of many car owners, when the situation occurs, they think that it is caused by quality problems, and they find 4S stores to solve the problem after sale, but most of the cases will be rejected after sale, saying that it is due to external forces and denied. Perhaps without monitoring, it is difficult to explain whether the car is caused by external forces or its own quality.

In this regard, when car owners encounter a burst skylight, they should first call the police and keep it at the scene, and the traffic police will rule out that the skylight is damaged by external forces, which can provide evidence for safeguarding their rights in the future. If you fail to report to the police in time and there are still doubts after the identification results of the manufacturers, they can also be identified by a third-party organization.

According to the current insurance clause, when the car skylight glass is broken separately, even if the car owner takes out the additional risk of glass breaking separately, he can only get compensation under the car damage insurance. The full name of glass insurance is "individual glass breakage insurance", which is obviously different from car damage insurance, so the skylight is not within the scope of glass insurance, so we can only take car damage insurance.

Even though toughened glass is used in car windows and skylights at present, there is still a certain rate of self-explosion. Affected by the bumps and distortions of the car body during driving, it will increase the probability of large glass self-explosion, and the larger the skylight area, the greater the risk of self-explosion. At the same time, it is also recommended that car owners maintain the skylight regularly.

It is just that it is difficult for netizens to have a sense of substitution due to the "relaxation" of Mercedes-Benz brand in quality control in the past two years, including the self-explosion of Mercedes-Benz E-class glass.
